My Cricut Craft Room 100 Cartridge January Blog Hop



I am so excited to welcome you to my first 100 Cartridge blog hop being part of the My Cricut Craftroom design team.  You should have come from Janet's blog.  If not, please start at the beginning here .   If you have never done the 100 cartridge blog hop before let me explain a little.  The design team from My Cricut Craftroom creates projects using at least 100 different Cricut Cartridges.  You may see projects made with some of the same cartridges, but there will be 100 different cartridges used throughout this hop!    For my first blog hop (I will be in at least 6 this year!)  I have chosen to use George and Basic Shapes, Country Life and Cindy Loo to make this gift bag.



The bag itself is from George and Basic shapes,  the frame is from Cindy Loo and the romping lambs are from Country Life.   I used my gypsy to make the bag as large as would fit on a 12 x 12 mat.  Then I added pages to my project and added the frame to the second page and the lambs to the third.  This was so I could make both the lambs and the frame as large as would fit on my bag by using the preview feature you can see every image on each page.



The flowers are from Prima and I used two shades of glimmer mist on them, denim and cranberry.  Thanks for stopping by and sharing  my first post for the 100 cartridge blog hop.

And to thank you for stopping in I have some blog candy for you...to get you started with your valentine projects!

Leave me a comment with a way to contact you and make sure you leave some love on my fellow DT members postings also!

 Your next stop is Erica!

Oh LIZ!!! I'm LOVIN' your Gift Bag idea! SO CUTE!! Love the Primas you chose, too!
I am SOOO EXCITED about this 100 Cartridge Blog Hop giveaway. This would be a GREAT start to my collection of cartridges, as I just recently purchased the E2 & am in dire need of cartridges!! I purchased the Everyday Paper Doll Dress Up cartridge for myself for Christmas. Other than that, I only have the 2 that came preloaded into my new E2. I have a LONG way to go!
THANK YOU for your consideration! I look forward to coming back to your blog to see more of your clever creations! :o)
